Entertainment</b>(NYSE:<b><u>AMC</u></b>) stock has a lot of people fatigued. And like allmeme stock rallies, the latest one involving movie theatre chain AMC is likely to end in spectacular fashion. In one week, AMC stock rallied 157% higher, dropped 33% and then rose again by 25%.</p>\n<p>It’s been quite the rollercoaster. And what has driven the #AMCArmy of retail investors to push the share price sky high has been the fact that the world’s largest movie theatre chain was brought to theedge of bankruptcyby the Covid-19 pandemic. That, and the stock has been one of the most heavily shorted on Wall Street this year.</p>\n<p>But AMC’s problems are not unique. The entire movie industry, from production to exhibition, has beendevastated by the pandemicand many companies have struggled just like AMC.</p>\n<p>Here are seven movie stocks ready for the #AMCArmy finale.</p>\n<ul>\n <li><b>Cineplex</b>(OTCMKTS:<b><u>CPXGF</u></b>)</li>\n <li><b>Walt Disney</b>(NYSE:<b><u>DIS</u></b>)</li>\n <li><b>Lions Gate Entertainment</b>(NYSE:<b><u>LGF.A</u></b>)</li>\n <li><b>Netflix</b>(NASDAQ:<b><u>NFLX</u></b>)</li>\n <li><b>Cinemark Holdings</b>(NYSE:<b><u>CNK</u></b>)</li>\n <li><b>IMAX</b>(NYSE:<b><u>IMAX</u></b>)</li>\n <li><b>Marcus Corporation</b>(NYSE:<b><u>MCS</u></b>)</li>\n</ul>\n<p><b>Movie Stocks: Cineplex (CPXGF)</b><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/48b5992b0e1c313b454912d58ba0c08d\" tg-width=\"300\" tg-height=\"165\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\">Source: Shutterstock</p>\n<p>Toronto-based Cineplex, which operates more than 165 movie theatres across Canada, has been in business since Charlie Chaplin was making silent pictures. And, like AMC and other movie theatre chains, Cineplex has had a tough go of it during the pandemic.</p>\n<p>CPXGFstock is now tradingat $13.48 a share, about half the $25.41 it was at in February 2020 before Covid-19 landed. The share price had been as low as $3.30 a share last October after the company reported its quarterly revenue plunged 95%.</p>\n<p>In addition to having its theatres shuttered for nearly a year and reopened with capacity limits, Cineplex has had to cope with a litany of other problems. First, Britain’s Cineworld Group backed out of adeal to acquire Cineplexfor $2.18 billion, a deal that would have made the merged companies the biggest operator of movie theaters in North America. Then, the company’s stock was removed fromCanada’s benchmark stock index, the<b>S&amp;P/TSX Composite Index</b>, and it was forced to sell its its head office in Toronto for $57 million CAD ($47 million) in order to raise cash to pay down debt.</p>\n<p>At last check, Cineplex was negotiating toreceive relief from its creditorsas it eagerly awaits the start of the summer movie season.</p>\n<p><b>Walt Disney (DIS)</b><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/07f8afcac0c7c6dd3846e904c09efbf7\" tg-width=\"300\" tg-height=\"169\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\">Source: Shutterstock</p>\n<p>DIS stock has had a great run over the past year, propped up by the meteoric rise of the company’s Disney+ streaming service. The Walt Disney streaming service that is home to popular film and television franchises such as Star Wars, Marvel superheroes and Pixar animation grew to103.6 million subscriberswithin 18 months of launching and kept the Mouse House afloat during the pandemic while its theme parks and cruise lines were closed.</p>\n<p>However, the shine has come off DIS stock recently over concerns that growth in the company’s streaming service will now begin to slow.</p>\n<p>However, asa diversified company, Walt Disney should perform well as its theme parks around the world reopen this summer, its cruises set sail again, and it begins developing new content for the Disney+ platform. And, the company hopes to keep its growth in streaming robust by bundling Disney+ with other content offerings that include the sports-related ESPN Plus platform and movies and TV shows offered through Hulu, both of which Disney owns. With so much diversification, it likely won’t be long before DIS stock recovers and tests new highs.</p>\n<p>DIS stock is currently at $176.81, down 13% from its 52-week high of $203.02 a share reached in March.</p>\n<p><b>Lions Gate Entertainment (LGF.A)</b><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/07033460d0624cdd53042a5aa7052595\" tg-width=\"300\" tg-height=\"199\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\">Source: ©iStock.com/diego_cervo</p>\n<p>Lions Gate Entertainment is a producer of popular films and TV programs, including the<i>Hunger Games</i>,<i>John Wick</i>and<i>Saw</i>movie franchises and the Emmy Award-winning TV series<i>Mad Men</i>. The company that started life in Vancouver, British Columbia in 1997, Lions Gate is today headquartered in Santa Monica, California. Coming out of the pandemic, CEO Jon Feltheimer islooking to be acquiredby a larger studio.</p>\n<p>Investment bank<b>Loop Capital</b>has put a price target on Lions Gate of $8 billion and said any acquirer would get arich catalogueof content that also includes the<i>John Wick</i>and<i>Expendables</i>movie series, as well as TV shows such as<i>Nurse Jackie</i>,<i>Nashville</i>and<i>Weeds</i>. However, this isn’t the first time that Lions Gate hasput out a ‘for sale’ sign. The company held talks in 2018 with<b>Amazon</b>(NASDAQ:<b><u>AMZN</u></b>) and<b>Comcast</b>(NASDAQ:<b><u>CMCSA</u></b>)about a possible acquisition, though nothing ultimately came from the discussions.</p>\n<p>LGF.A stock has had a strong run, up 82% year-to-date to $20.21 a share.</p>\n<p><b>Netflix (NFLX)</b><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/55a3532d6172fc7628916587da288c86\" tg-width=\"300\" tg-height=\"169\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\">Source: Riccosta / Shutterstock.com</p>\n<p>NFLX stock has beenunder pressurelately as fears grow that the boost the company received during the pandemic is over. Netflix’s most recent earnings results did nothing to ease the fears of Wall Street. The Silicon Valley-based streaming giant reported on April 20 that it added 3.98 million subscribers in the first quarter, missing Wall Street’s estimate of 6.29 million subscribers and its own forecast of 6 million.</p>\n<p>The current quarter looks even worse with Netflix forecasting only a million new customers worldwide, less than a quarter of the 4.44 million forecast by analysts.</p>\n<p>To be fair, Netflix is largely a victim of its own success. After adding more than20 million new subscriberslast year (2020), growth was bound to level off at some point. Today, Netflix has nearly 208 million subscribers worldwide. Netflix’s subscriber growth has also been hurt by a lack of new content as TV and movie productions were halted during the pandemic.</p>\n<p>The company hopes to release a glut of new content later this year and is targeting Asia, where subscriptions grew 65% last year, for continued growth.</p>\n<p>NFLX stock has fallen 11.6% since its last quarterly results release and now trades at $485.81 a share.</p>\n<p><b>Cinemark Holdings (CNK)</b><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/9e9adffdcac440f98a123a3874db0146\" tg-width=\"300\" tg-height=\"169\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\">Source: LukeandKarla.Travel/Shutterstock.com</p>\n<p>Another major U.S. movie theatre chain besides AMC is Plano, Texas-based Cinemark Holdings. Founded in 1961, Cinemark operates movie theatres under several brands, including Cinemark, Century Theatres and Tinseltown. The company is also global with operations as far afield as Taiwan and Brazil. At its current price of $23.21 a share,CNK stockis currently at about half the $40 a share it was trading at in the summer before the global pandemic.</p>\n<p>Cinemark Holdingsrevenue got hammeredover the past year as its theatres around the world were shut. Revenues for 2020 came in at $700 million, down 80% from $3.3 billion in 2019. Losses for last year came in at record $5.25 per share.</p>\n<p>Things are beginning to improve as Covid-19 vaccination rates accelerate and with aslate of blockbuster movieson deck for the coming summer months. However, currently the majority of Cinemark Holdings theatres are operating at 50% capacity as pandemic restrictions remain in place in most jurisdictions.</p>\n<p><b>IMAX (IMAX)</b><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/32ee2bd29b44f561b3e38ce1867198f8\" tg-width=\"300\" tg-height=\"169\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\">Source: imageAllan / Shutterstock.com</p>\n<p>Canadian theatre company IMAX Corporation, which makes giant movie screens and the films that are shown on them, is another company that will be glad to see both the pandemic and the AMC stock rally end.</p>\n<p>Investment bank<b>Goldman Sachs</b>(NYSE:<b><u>GS</u></b>) recentlydowngraded IMAX stockto “sell” from “neutral” and lowered its 12-month price target on the shares to $18.60, which would be a 16% drop from the current share price of $22.04.</p>\n<p>Goldman forecasts that the U.S. box office will only recover to about three-quarters of its pre-pandemic levels, noting that movie theater attendance had been in decline before the pandemic. The bank also warned that a glut of new theatrical releases will lead new movies to cannibalize each other this summer.</p>\n<p>Despite the negative sentiment, IMAX remains hopeful. Pre-sales of the IMAX version of the upcoming<i>Fast &amp; Furious</i>film (the ninth in that series) recentlyset a record in China, one of IMAX’s biggest markets globally.</p>\n<p><b>Marcus Corp.

Its1,110 screensare primarily located in Wisconsin, Illinois, Iowa, Minnesota and Nebraska.

And like allmeme stock rallies, the latest one involving movie theatre chain AMC is likely to end in spectacular fashion. In one week, AMC stock rallied 157% higher, dropped 33% and then rose again by 25%.\nIt’s been quite the rollercoaster. And what has driven the #AMCArmy of retail investors to push the share price sky high has been the fact that the world’s largest movie theatre chain was brought to theedge of bankruptcyby the Covid-19 pandemic. That, and the stock has been one of the most heavily shorted on Wall Street this year.\nBut AMC’s problems are not unique. The entire movie industry, from production to exhibition, has beendevastated by the pandemicand many companies have struggled just like AMC.\nHere are seven movie stocks ready for the #AMCArmy finale.\n\nCineplex(OTCMKTS:CPXGF)\nWalt Disney(NYSE:DIS)\nLions Gate Entertainment(NYSE:LGF.A)\nNetflix(NASDAQ:NFLX)\nCinemark Holdings(NYSE:CNK)\nIMAX(NYSE:IMAX)\nMarcus Corporation(NYSE:MCS)\n\nMovie Stocks: Cineplex (CPXGF)Source: Shutterstock\nToronto-based Cineplex, which operates more than 165 movie theatres across Canada, has been in business since Charlie Chaplin was making silent pictures. And, like AMC and other movie theatre chains, Cineplex has had a tough go of it during the pandemic.\nCPXGFstock is now tradingat $13.48 a share, about half the $25.41 it was at in February 2020 before Covid-19 landed. The share price had been as low as $3.30 a share last October after the company reported its quarterly revenue plunged 95%.\nIn addition to having its theatres shuttered for nearly a year and reopened with capacity limits, Cineplex has had to cope with a litany of other problems. First, Britain’s Cineworld Group backed out of adeal to acquire Cineplexfor $2.18 billion, a deal that would have made the merged companies the biggest operator of movie theaters in North America. Then, the company’s stock was removed fromCanada’s benchmark stock index, theS&P/TSX Composite Index, and it was forced to sell its its head office in Toronto for $57 million CAD ($47 million) in order to raise cash to pay down debt.\nAt last check, Cineplex was negotiating toreceive relief from its creditorsas it eagerly awaits the start of the summer movie season.\nWalt Disney (DIS)Source: Shutterstock\nDIS stock has had a great run over the past year, propped up by the meteoric rise of the company’s Disney+ streaming service. The Walt Disney streaming service that is home to popular film and television franchises such as Star Wars, Marvel superheroes and Pixar animation grew to103.6 million subscriberswithin 18 months of launching and kept the Mouse House afloat during the pandemic while its theme parks and cruise lines were closed.\nHowever, the shine has come off DIS stock recently over concerns that growth in the company’s streaming service will now begin to slow.\nHowever, asa diversified company, Walt Disney should perform well as its theme parks around the world reopen this summer, its cruises set sail again, and it begins developing new content for the Disney+ platform. And, the company hopes to keep its growth in streaming robust by bundling Disney+ with other content offerings that include the sports-related ESPN Plus platform and movies and TV shows offered through Hulu, both of which Disney owns. With so much diversification, it likely won’t be long before DIS stock recovers and tests new highs.\nDIS stock is currently at $176.81, down 13% from its 52-week high of $203.02 a share reached in March.\nLions Gate Entertainment (LGF.A)Source: ©iStock.com/diego_cervo\nLions Gate Entertainment is a producer of popular films and TV programs, including theHunger Games,John WickandSawmovie franchises and the Emmy Award-winning TV seriesMad Men. The company that started life in Vancouver, British Columbia in 1997, Lions Gate is today headquartered in Santa Monica, California. Coming out of the pandemic, CEO Jon Feltheimer islooking to be acquiredby a larger studio.\nInvestment bankLoop Capitalhas put a price target on Lions Gate of $8 billion and said any acquirer would get arich catalogueof content that also includes theJohn WickandExpendablesmovie series, as well as TV shows such asNurse Jackie,NashvilleandWeeds. However, this isn’t the first time that Lions Gate hasput out a ‘for sale’ sign. The company held talks in 2018 withAmazon(NASDAQ:AMZN) andComcast(NASDAQ:CMCSA)about a possible acquisition, though nothing ultimately came from the discussions.\nLGF.A stock has had a strong run, up 82% year-to-date to $20.21 a share.\nNetflix (NFLX)Source: Riccosta / Shutterstock.com\nNFLX stock has beenunder pressurelately as fears grow that the boost the company received during the pandemic is over. Netflix’s most recent earnings results did nothing to ease the fears of Wall Street. The Silicon Valley-based streaming giant reported on April 20 that it added 3.98 million subscribers in the first quarter, missing Wall Street’s estimate of 6.29 million subscribers and its own forecast of 6 million.\nThe current quarter looks even worse with Netflix forecasting only a million new customers worldwide, less than a quarter of the 4.44 million forecast by analysts.\nTo be fair, Netflix is largely a victim of its own success. After adding more than20 million new subscriberslast year (2020), growth was bound to level off at some point. Today, Netflix has nearly 208 million subscribers worldwide. Netflix’s subscriber growth has also been hurt by a lack of new content as TV and movie productions were halted during the pandemic.\nThe company hopes to release a glut of new content later this year and is targeting Asia, where subscriptions grew 65% last year, for continued growth.\nNFLX stock has fallen 11.6% since its last quarterly results release and now trades at $485.81 a share.\nCinemark Holdings (CNK)Source: LukeandKarla.Travel/Shutterstock.com\nAnother major U.S. movie theatre chain besides AMC is Plano, Texas-based Cinemark Holdings. Founded in 1961, Cinemark operates movie theatres under several brands, including Cinemark, Century Theatres and Tinseltown. The company is also global with operations as far afield as Taiwan and Brazil. At its current price of $23.21 a share,CNK stockis currently at about half the $40 a share it was trading at in the summer before the global pandemic.\nCinemark Holdingsrevenue got hammeredover the past year as its theatres around the world were shut. Revenues for 2020 came in at $700 million, down 80% from $3.3 billion in 2019. Losses for last year came in at record $5.25 per share.\nThings are beginning to improve as Covid-19 vaccination rates accelerate and with aslate of blockbuster movieson deck for the coming summer months. However, currently the majority of Cinemark Holdings theatres are operating at 50% capacity as pandemic restrictions remain in place in most jurisdictions.\nIMAX (IMAX)Source: imageAllan / Shutterstock.com\nCanadian theatre company IMAX Corporation, which makes giant movie screens and the films that are shown on them, is another company that will be glad to see both the pandemic and the AMC stock rally end.\nInvestment bankGoldman Sachs(NYSE:GS) recentlydowngraded IMAX stockto “sell” from “neutral” and lowered its 12-month price target on the shares to $18.60, which would be a 16% drop from the current share price of $22.04.\nGoldman forecasts that the U.S. box office will only recover to about three-quarters of its pre-pandemic levels, noting that movie theater attendance had been in decline before the pandemic. The bank also warned that a glut of new theatrical releases will lead new movies to cannibalize each other this summer.\nDespite the negative sentiment, IMAX remains hopeful. Pre-sales of the IMAX version of the upcomingFast & Furiousfilm (the ninth in that series) recentlyset a record in China, one of IMAX’s biggest markets globally.\nMarcus Corp. (MCS)Source: Shutterstock\nRegional operator Marcus Corp. is the fourth-largest movie theatre operator in America. Its1,110 screensare primarily located in Wisconsin, Illinois, Iowa, Minnesota and Nebraska. The Milwaukee, Wisconsin-based company also owns 17 hotels and resorts in the Midwest, as well as California and Texas.\nThe company’s first-quarter revenue came in at $50.8 million, 69% less than last year’s comparable revenue of $159.5 million.\nHowever, Marcus’ cash position remains strong, with the company reporting cash reserves of $213 million at the end ofthis year’ first quarter. Still, the pandemic has taken a toll on Marcus’ business and share price. MCS stock has traded as low as $6.84 and as high as $24.71 over the past year. The share price now stands at $22.57.\nIn early May, Marcus reported thatnearly 90% of theatreshad reopened and that it was expanding its operating days and hours as new movies begin to be released theatrically.","news_type":1,"symbols_score_info":{"CNK":0.9,"CPXGF":0.9,"DIS":0.9,"IMAX":0.9,"LGF":0.9,"MCS":0.9,"NFLX":0.9}},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":657,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":132096806,"gmtCreate":1622043333205,"gmtModify":1634184375980,"author":{"id":"3579163360625813","authorId":"3579163360625813","name":"YanChoo","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/5b51b00b4040ff1c22d041218513c2b5","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3579163360625813","authorIdStr":"3579163360625813"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Hi","listText":"Hi","text":"Hi","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":6,"commentSize":3,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/132096806","repostId":"2138143109","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":563,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":132096038,"gmtCreate":1622043311224,"gmtModify":1634184376345,"author":{"id":"3579163360625813","authorId":"3579163360625813","name":"YanChoo","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/5b51b00b4040ff1c22d041218513c2b5","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3579163360625813","authorIdStr":"3579163360625813"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Hi","listText":"Hi","text":"Hi","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":2,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/132096038","repostId":"1113786599","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1113786599","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1622041965,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/1113786599?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2021-05-26 23:12","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Amazon buying MGM for $8.45 billion, will 'reimagine' storied movie, TV brands","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1113786599","media":"Reuters","summary":" -Amazon.com Inc said on Wednesday it is buying MGM, the fabled U.S. movie studio home to the James Bond franchise, for $8.45 billion, giving it a huge library of films and TV shows and ramping up competition with streaming rivals led by Netflix and Disney+.The deal is designed to help Amazon  supercharge its Amazon Prime Video service by keeping customers engaged and paying an annual subscription that also guarantees rapid delivery of purchases from its online store.\"The real financial value be","content":"<p>(Reuters) -Amazon.com Inc said on Wednesday it is buying MGM, the fabled U.S. movie studio home to the James Bond franchise, for $8.45 billion, giving it a huge library of films and TV shows and ramping up competition with streaming rivals led by Netflix and Disney+.</p><p>Privately-held MGM, or Metro Goldwyn Mayer, was founded in 1924, owns the Epix cable channel and makes popular TV shows including \"Fargo\", \"Vikings\" and \"Shark Tank.\"</p><p>The deal is designed to help Amazon (NASDAQ:AMZN) supercharge its Amazon Prime Video service by keeping customers engaged and paying an annual subscription that also guarantees rapid delivery of purchases from its online store.</p><p>\"The real financial value behind this deal is the treasure trove of (intellectual property) in the deep catalog that we plan to reimagine and develop together with MGM's talented team.

The companies are increasing spending and expanding in international markets, aiming to capture the pandemic-led shift to binge-watching shows online.Amazon has also made big bets courting fans of live sports and has picked up lucrative licenses to stream games, including a long-term deal with the National Football League that was estimated to cost about $1 billion per year.The proliferating streaming services are also scrambling for brands that they can expand and libraries of older shows and movies. Analysts have said this is a big motivation for another round of consolidation of media properties after a brief hiatus during the pandemic.Underscoring the trend, AT&T Inc (NYSE:T) announced a $43-billion deal last week to spin out its WarnerMedia business and combine it with Discovery (NASDAQ:DISCA) Inc, one of the most ambitious yet in the streaming era.\"Amazon is seeking to become a more prominent player in the entertainment world, and there's no better way to do that than by buying one of the most iconic movie studios in Hollywood,\" said Jesse Cohen, senior analyst at Investing.com. \"It's all about content as the streaming war heats up.\"The acquisition is Amazon’s second-biggest after Whole Foods Market, which it bought for $13.7 billion in 2017.The price represents a lofty premium relative to other deals. The price is about 37 times MGM’s 2021 estimated EBITDA - or almost triple the enterprise value-to-EBITDA multiple that Discovery’s deal implied for AT&T’s content assets - according to Reuters Breakingviews.MGM started a formal sale process in December, when it was estimated to be worth about $5.5 billion.The deal can be viewed as a doubling down on business strategy that Jeff Bezos, Amazon’s CEO, articulated at a conference in 2016: “When we win a Golden Globe, it helps us sell more shoes,” he had said, referring to Amazon's diverse business divisions.In April, Amazon posted its fourth consecutive record quarterly profit and boasted more than 200 million Prime loyalty subscribers.Amazon shares rose 0.3% in early trading.LUCRATIVE FRANCHISE RIGHTSAmazon has picked up Academy Awards over the years and slowly moved from art-house fare toward content with wider appeal. The MGM acquisition accelerates that move, giving it rights to James Bond, one of the most lucrative franchises in film history that’s earned nearly $7 billion at the box office globally, according to MGM.MGM also has a massive library of classic films including \"Rocky,\" \"Moonstruck,\" and \"The Silence of the Lambs.\"The potential to mine this intellectual property, by making new shows and films based on popular characters, will help Amazon draw viewers to Prime, two former Amazon executives told Reuters.Still, efforts by Amazon to profit off MGM's library won’t be easy, or cheap.In many cases, MGM’s content is tied up in multi-year deals with television networks, the former Amazon executives said. Amazon cannot air MGM’s reality show “The Voice,” for instance, which contractually is in the hands of NBC.Bringing a new installment of the James Bond saga to Prime viewers may be a particularly difficult task, the sources said. The terms under which MGM acquired the franchise leave control in the hands of the Broccoli family, the Bond films’ producers.News of the acquisition followed quickly on the return of Jeff Blackburn, Amazon’s former senior vice president overseeing content and M&A, who had left early this year.Incoming Amazon CEO Andy Jassy had particular trust in Blackburn after decades at Amazon together, hoping he'd shepherd a complicated merger, the sources said.","news_type":1,"symbols_score_info":{"AMZN":0.9}},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":436,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":378606419,"gmtCreate":1619019498031,"gmtModify":1631885194900,"author":{"id":"3579163360625813","authorId":"3579163360625813","name":"YanChoo","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/5b51b00b4040ff1c22d041218513c2b5","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3579163360625813","authorIdStr":"3579163360625813"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Gogo","listText":"Gogo","text":"Gogo","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":2,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/378606419","repostId":"2129187781","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":442,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":378606888,"gmtCreate":1619019468944,"gmtModify":1634289156481,"author":{"id":"3579163360625813","authorId":"3579163360625813","name":"YanChoo","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/5b51b00b4040ff1c22d041218513c2b5","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3579163360625813","authorIdStr":"3579163360625813"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"[难过]&nbsp;[难过]&nbsp;","listText":"[难过]&nbsp;[难过]&nbsp;","text":"[难过] [难过]","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/378606888","repostId":"2129187781","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":649,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"CN","totalScore":0}],"defaultTab":"followers","isTTM":false}
